QUEENS BIRTHDAY BEACON
Lots of people enjoyed a fantastic beacon on Thursday night in celebration of Her Majesty’s 90th birthday.
Many thanks to the Beacon builders and tenders – Wilmour Biddlecombe, Lee Byford and Mike Abbott, especially for looking after it during the night.
EU REFERENDUM – MINSTEAD’S “QUESTION TIME”
The Hall was filled to maximum capacity on Friday evening to hear Sir Vince Cable and Daniel Hannan MEP put the case respectively for Remaining and Leaving the EU and there was a great deal of interest. Time prevented all questions being asked but many aspects of the issue were covered.
Congratulations to George Dibben and all his helpers for organising such a thought provoking and interesting occasion and to Sir John de Trafford for doing such an excellent job as Chairman for the evening.
A MESSAGE FROM OUR PCSO
Dan Carlin has sent a message saying that it is with great regret that he is moving on from the Lyndhurst/Minstead/Bramshaw area. He has thoroughly enjoyed his 6 months here and would like to thank everyone for making him feel welcome and part of the community. He will be replaced by PC Steve Norris and PCSO Richard Williams, who will introduce themselves to us over the next couple of weeks.
